Not much is known of him yet, there are rumors of people coming back 'different' sometimes entirely changed, claiming a past and events which never actually happened. Devices being sold to help with surveillance or predictive programming.... even games more advanced than anything else in the industry.
All caused by one person who is supposedly involved with human trafficking, espionage as well as being connected to the black-market.
Briefly seen in Devilfish he moved on to Minneapolis, rumors being that the reclaimers my had something to do with this. -->
Character Sheet
Appearance
Average guy, albeit a bit lanky and usually tired looking, blond hair, brown eyes, usually worn down clothes.
Mentality
The world is a mystery in on itself, chaotic and dangerous, full of wasted potential and unknown dangers.
Isaac is the type of guy who prefers to stay at home and observe everything from a distance. Surprises are rarely a good thing and he wants to precisely knew what should be expected. Still there is a deep curiosity urging him to keep poking the hornet's nest otherwise known as the world outside of his familiar environment.
An social outcast, detached from society but convinced he could do better than anyone else, create something more beautiful. Just like a colony of ants, humans are drones formed by the world around them to serve, family, friends, neighborhood, country... All important factors molding them into what they are now.
Believing that he has the means... and the power to change the world into something better, to break someone down and build them up, into a greater more useful version of them self.
Power
A Tinker focused on simulations, predictions and conditioning.
Able to create various devices, either with the purpose of observation or to create a virtual reality.
His devices able to generate whole worlds, more detailed than any program, movie or game, virtual reality evolving with the data he receives. His programs could imitate reality down to the smallest grain of sand, even with every bird, ant and worm in the soil behaving just like their real counterpart, one being able to experience drugs or feel pain indistinguishable from the real deal..... or create a more abstract world, physics and sensations different from reality but still following certain rules all depending on the purpose.
People can be hooked onto the device, sending them into a coma, while mentally they're in his world now. Giving him access to their knowledge, reality shaping itself into a more familiar environment or simulating certain memories.
Besides this passive application, it can be used to challenge and 'train' those inside, to test or influence the behavior of any participant even wipe someone clean, only to add new experiences, effectively molding them into a totally different person. In theory he could give someone an entirely different childhood.
Additionally, virtual reality can be used to make relative predictive models, depending on the data he was able to amass, results being more akkurate with less unknown variables. Enabling him to predict the outcome of certain given situation and the steps needed to accomplish it. In theory its supposed to be close to precognition, in practice its far from it, with too many unknown factors rendering those predictions relatively vague.
Generally his tech needs high amounts of data to properly function, his first equipment being rather shitty, but becoming increasingly effective with each iteration. The precognition and brainwashing tech being a recent breakthrough caused by his last test subjects.
Notes
Since his trigger, he managed to establish himself as an enigma into the criminal underground of Devilfish, amassing knowledge and connections. Usually working through other people he managed to 'convince' of his vision. Increasing his wealth through various devices as well as providing labor to his clients.
He maintains distant but still somewhat close relations to certain figures of similar mindset, interested in the deeper workings of parahumans and the following uncertainty of the worlds fate.
Maintains distant relationships to the ministry of truth.
